The recorder automatically receives and records
stereo and bilingual programmes based on the
ZWEITON system or the NICAM system.
The HDD and a DVD-RW (VR mode) or DVD-R
(VR mode) can record both main and sub sounds.
You can switch between main and sub when
playing the disc. For the HDD, you can select the
sound track before recording. Select “Main,”
“Sub,” or “Main+Sub” in “Bilingual Recording”
of the “HDD Rec. Settings” in the “Recording”
setup (page 123).
A DVD+RW, DVD-RW (Video mode), DVD+R,
or DVD-R (Video mode) can record only one
sound track (main or sub) at a time. Select the
sound track using the Setup Display before
recording starts. Set “Bilingual Recording” of the
“DVD Rec. Settings” to “Main” (default) or “Sub”
in the “Recording” setup (page 123).
ZWEITON (German stereo) system
When a stereo based programme is received,
“Stereo” appears.
When a bilingual ZWEITON based programme is
received, “Main,” “Sub,” or “Main/Sub” appears.
NICAM system
When a stereo or bilingual NICAM based
programme is received, “NICAM” appears in the
front panel display.
To record a NICAM programme, be sure to set
“Audio” of “Channel Setting” in the “Basic” setup
to “NICAM” (default). If the sound is not clear
when listening to NICAM broadcasts, set “Audio”
to “Standard” (see “Channel Setting” on
page 112).
z Hint
You can select the audio (main or sub) while recording
bilingual programmes using the
(audio) button.
This does not affect the recorded sound.
Pictures with copy protection cannot be recorded
on this recorder.
When the recorder receives a copy guard signal,
the recorder continues to record but only a blank,
grey coloured screen will be recorded.
* The recorded disc can be played only on CPRM
compatible equipment (page 9).
